A bridesmaid has died during a hen party holiday in Spain after going into hospital with tooth pain.

Natalie Beaumont, 31, was enjoying a break in Malaga to celebrate the upcoming wedding of her best friend when she was taken ill.

She died in hospital in the early hours of last Thursday following a routine operation to drain a tooth abscess. Family members have yet to be told the cause of her death.

Mrs Beaumont's husband Brett, 42, paid tribute to his wife of five years as "one of God's wonderful people" following her sudden death.

Mr Beaumont, of Huddersfield, West Yorks, described her as the kindest person he had ever met.

He said: "Everybody who knew her loved her. She was a wonderful step mum to my daughter Lucy. We were not just husband and wife, we were best friends."

He said Mrs Beaumont was always smiling, added: "She had just so much love for everyone and never had a bad word to say about anyone. I loved her more than life itself. She was just a wonderful person."

Friends and family are still trying to piece together how and why Mrs Beaumont deteriorated so rapidly after she had attended A&E in Spain with tooth pain on the fourth day of the holiday.

She and a group of 10 friends had earlier enjoyed a boat trip and karaoke while staying at a villa to celebrate the impending wedding of Sam Thompson, from Cowlersley.

Mrs Beaumont had organised the holiday and was Miss Thompson's maid of honour.

Miss Thompson said: "She was a big part of my life. I'm absolutely devastated and it's a massive shock. She planned the hen do, which was perfect. She was the most genuine and caring person, full of life and love, one of those very rare people that you meet."

Describing how Mrs Beaumont had planned the trip down to the last detail, she added: "It was amazing. She put so much care and thought into every little bit. It was spot-on.

"For her to go on a hen do and not come home is unthinkable."

Mrs Beaumont's sister Vicki Field, who was also on the trip, said: "Natalie was adored by all of her family."

Mr Beaumont is now awaiting the return of his wife's body to Britain, which is being dealt with by insurers. A funeral date has yet to be set.
